Then I think you really haven't tested it very thoroughly.

For instance:

$ git ls-files -- 'drivers/*.[ch]' | \
  xargs ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --quiet --no-summary --types=MISSING_FORMAT_NEWLINE

emits many false positives.

Some types of false positives:

o Many of the formats seem to end in a ':' or a ' '
  maybe those should be excluded
   #86: FILE: drivers/android/binder_alloc_selftest.c:86:
   +	pr_err("free seq: ");

   o Split string formats should be excluded better
     as only the first string fragment is checked:
   #1001: FILE: drivers/ata/pata_octeon_cf.c:1001:
   +	dev_info(&pdev->dev, "version " DRV_VERSION" %d bit%s.\n",
   +		 is_16bit ? 16 : 8,
   +		 cf_port->is_true_ide ? ", True IDE" : "");

   probably a few others, including a desire to check
   if a pr_cont is below the use within a few lines.

No worries, when it's cooked, it'll have that.

cheers, Joe
